4th Grade SpellingStudents will be using their spelling words over a two-week period. During the first week, your child will be given a pretest, which will allow us to place him/her in the list most appropriate for their level. For the remainder of the week and into the second week, we will do many activities including using our words in our writing. The test will be on the second Friday. Your child should be practicing the highlighted list including the high frequency words at the bottom. All lists study the same skill of the week. These are fluid groups, meaning your child may not always be in the same color group,
